11. A dermatologist in NW GA (and other locations) overcharged Medicare, Medicaid and other

government payors. I used this dermatology practice many years ago when I first moved to the area, but stopped using them because the doctor was such a jerk. He had a good staff, but he acted like such a clown and I felt demeaned every time I saw him. He was on the Medicare/Medicaid gravy train and got caught. I now use a different practice with much better results.

"have agreed to pay $6.6 million to resolve allegations that they violated the False Claims Act by knowingly submitting false claims to federal healthcare programs for Mohs Micrographic Surgeries and other dermatological procedures.”
